A user downloads the latest version of their CAD/CAE software (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso 2024). The license server was last restarted two years ago and is running a vendor daemon from version 2022. The moment the user launches the 2024 client, the error appears. The administrator is baffled because licenses for older versions still work fine.
